Why do conspiracy nuts latch onto a stupid loving global hoax that requires involvement and coordination of literally hundreds of millions of people, yet seem to completely ignore actual conspiracies like these? Is it the lack of a personal stake or excitement? Does a conspiracy need to be like a Michael Bay movie to be compelling to ordinary folks?

Conspiracy nuts begin with a desired conclusion and work backwards from there to invent observations to support the desired conclusion. Conspiracy theories are bugfuck insane because some absolutely bugfuck things would have to be true for their desired reality to exist and yet still be even vaguely consistent with actual reality as observed.

https://twitter.com/kaitlancollins/status/1402205787129274372 Senate report reveals new details about security failures ahead of January 6 attack but omits Trump's role https://www.cnn.com/2021/06/08/politics/us-capitol-riot-senate-report/index.html CNN — A new Senate report reveals previously unknown details about the stunning security breakdowns ahead of the January 6 US Capitol attack, adding an authoritative emphasis to previous evidence that there were massive intelligence failures, critical miscommunications, and unheeded warnings that ultimately led to the chaotic response that day. But at the same time, there are several glaring omissions in the report, including any examination of Donald Trump's role in the riots, raising questions about whether lawmakers, in their quest for bipartisanship, exposed the limits of a Congress divided and unable to agree on certain truths, particularly those related to the former President's actions. Sources tell CNN that in order for this report, which was compiled by the Senate Homeland Security and Rules committees, to have support from both parties, the language had to be carefully crafted, and that included excluding the word "insurrection," which notably does not appear outside of witness quotes and footnotes. "Did we look at Trump's role in the attack? The answer is no," a Senate committee aide told reporters. "The report did not attempt to look at the origins and development of the groups or individuals that participated in the attack on the Capitol," the aide said. Still, it marks the most comprehensive government report on the security failures leading up to the Capitol insurrection. Congressional investigators pored through "thousands of documents," received written statements from 50 police officers who defended the Capitol, and got testimony from a wide array of current and former officials who played a role in the security preparations and response. The report's narrow scope underscores the limits of a bipartisan, congressional investigation. While the evidence and interviews were gathered over months from bipartisan staff and members on two committees, the information pertained almost entirely to the security and intelligence shortcomings that led to that day, not focusing on why individuals would have come to the Capitol in the first place and Trump's role. Democratic Senate investigators took careful steps not to alienate their Republican counterparts in the process of the probe, which meant not taking a closer look at Trump's role in promoting the Jan. 6 rally and months-long attempt to pressure local officials, lawmakers in Congress and then-Vice President Mike Pence to subvert the will of the electorate. Aides also steered clear of language that could turn off some Republicans, including not referring to the attack as an "insurrection." "The language that was chosen was purposeful -- and represents the consensus of the four members and their respective staffs," a Senate committee aide said. "We did our very best to stick of the facts as we understood them and leave characterizations in quotes where there were characterizations." In one clear example of that, the report's appendix includes Trump's full speech before the January 6 crowd -- but does not go further into interpreting how that influenced the Capitol rioters. A Senate aide said that decision was made to avoid inserting "our editorial judgment" of the speech. While the report did nod to some of Trump's statements and tweets leading up to the events at the Capitol, the report did not fully explore the root causes of what led to an insurrection at the Capitol, nor did it lay blame on the former President directly for promoting a lie that the election was stolen that mobilized supporters to gather at the Capitol on January 6. It's unclear what the Senate's bipartisan report will mean for House Democratic leaders, who could decide in upcoming days and weeks to launch their own investigation either through a new Select Committee or through already established committees, which have been working on investigating the incidents surrounding January 6th for months. Now that the report is out, the Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer could argue it does not go far enough and could force another vote to establish a commission. However, there still wouldn't be the Republican votes to pass it. Without 60 votes or a united Democratic caucus willing to blow up the filibuster, a commission couldn't be established. Bipartisan Senate report finds sweeping failures surrounding January 6 attack on Capitol https://www.cbsnews.com/news/capitol-riot-report-failures-senate/ A Senate investigation of the January. 6 insurrection at the U.S. Capitol has uncovered broad government, military and law enforcement missteps before the violent attack, including a breakdown within multiple intelligence agencies and a lack of training and preparation for Capitol Police officers who were quickly overwhelmed by the rioters. The Senate report released Tuesday is the first - and perhaps last - bipartisan review of how hundreds of former President Trump's supporters were able to violently push past security lines and break into the Capitol that day, interrupting the certification of President Biden's victory. It includes new details about the police officers on the front lines who suffered chemical burns, brain injuries and broken bones and who told senators they were left with no direction when command systems broke down. It recommends immediate changes to give the Capitol Police chief more authority, to provide better planning and equipment for law enforcement and to streamline intelligence gathering among federal agencies. As a bipartisan effort, the report does not delve into the root causes of the attack, including Mr. Trump's role as he called for his supporters to "fight like hell" to overturn his election defeat that day. It does not call the attack an insurrection, even though it was. And it comes two weeks after Republicans blocked a bipartisan, independent commission that would investigate the insurrection more broadly. Now you might be wondering who the gently caress in charge of the committee that came up with all this. Well.... Senate Homeland Security Committee Democrats: Peters (MI), Carper (DE), Hassan (NH), Sinema (AZ), Rosen (NV), Padilla (CA), Ossoff (GA) Republicans: Portman (OH), Johnson (WI), Paul (KY), Lankford (OK), Romney (UT), Scott (FL), Hawley (MO)

I wonder if, every time some loud-mouthed conservative posted a picture of their guns with their MAGA hats on Twitter or whatever and a ton of liberals replied to that post with pictures of their guns next to like Biden or *gasp* ANTIFA stickers, how long it would take them to take THAT as a threat. Because it's "the other side" suddenly and they are so into this "the Right has the right to the 2nd!" mentality. As if what they're doing ISN'T threatening. But hey man it's just pictures of cooooool guns just like yours. What's the big deal? Why is that suddenly threatening to you, Kyle?

https://twitter.com/schwartzbCNBC/status/1402268076834439168 Joe Manchin cosponsored the voting-rights bill in 2019 that he's now blocking on the grounds that the GOP doesn't like it https://www.businessinsider.com/manchin-cosponsored-elections-bill-2019-that-he-is-now-blocking-2021-6 Democratic Sen. Joe Manchin in 2019 cosponsored the voting-rights bill that he recently announced he would vote against, arguing for a bipartisan bill instead. Manchin's refusal to back the For the People Act has tanked Democrats' hopes of passing sweeping election reforms. The House narrowly passed the bill in March, with zero votes from Republicans. As the Senate is evenly divided, relying on a tiebreaking vote from Vice President Kamala Harris, Manchin can single-handedly block the bill's passage. His opposition has infuriated many Democrats, who have spent the past few days attacking his position. Rep. Jamaal Bowman of New York called him "the new Mitch McConnell," referring to the Senate minority leader known for obstructionist tactics. In an op-ed article for the Charleston Gazette-Mail on Sunday, Manchin argued that he couldn't support a voting-rights bill with no bipartisan support. But Manchin was a cosponsor of a version of the bill introduced in 2019 that had no GOP cosponsors, a fact that his critics have highlighted.

Well you see, they paid the politicians a fraction of what they owed, and specifically instructed them not to let the IRS have the rest, in order to receive more payments in the future. Did the wage earners provide bribes? Didn't think so.
